44:015:028 For it seemed good to the Holy Ghost, and to us, to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things; 44:015:029 That ye abstain from meats offered to idols, and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication: from which if ye keep yourselves, ye shall do well. Fare ye well. 44:015:030 So when they were dismissed, they came to Antioch: and when they had gathered the multitude together, they delivered the epistle: 44:015:031 Which when they had read, they rejoiced for the consolation. 44:015:032 And Judas and Silas, being prophets also themselves, exhorted the brethren with many words, and confirmed them. 44:015:033 And after they had tarried there a space, they were let go in peace from the brethren unto the apostles. 44:015:034 Notwithstanding it pleased Silas to abide there still. 44:015:035 Paul also and Barnabas continued in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord, with many others also. 44:015:036 And some days after Paul said unto Barnabas, Let us go again and visit our brethren in every city where we have preached the word of the LORD, and see how they do. 44:015:037 And Barnabas determined to take with them John, whose surname was Mark. 44:015:038 But Paul thought not good to take him with them, who departed from them from Pamphylia, and went not with them to the work. 44:015:039 And the contention was so sharp between them, that they departed asunder one from the other: and so Barnabas took Mark, and sailed unto Cyprus; 44:015:040 And Paul chose Silas, and departed, being recommended by the brethren unto the grace of God. 44:015:041 And he went through Syria and Cilicia, confirming the churches. 44:016:001 Then came he to Derbe and Lystra: and, behold, a certain disciple was there, named Timotheus, the son of a certain woman, which was a Jewess, and believed; but his father was a Greek: 44:016:002 Which was well reported of by the brethren that were at Lystra and Iconium. 44:016:003 Him would Paul have to go forth with him; and took and circumcised him because of the Jews which were in those quarters: for they knew all that his father was a Greek. 44:016:004 And as they went through the cities, they delivered them the decrees for to keep, that were ordained of the apostles and elders which were at Jerusalem. 44:016:005 And so were the churches established in the faith, and increased in number daily. 44:016:006 Now when they had gone throughout Phrygia and the region of Galatia, and were forbidden of the Holy Ghost to preach the word in Asia, 44:016:007 After they were come to Mysia, they assayed to go into Bithynia: but the Spirit suffered them not.
